Updating prefs in cocoa apps

I can change TextEdit's preferences to open documents as UTF-8 by running this shell script:

defaults write com.apple.textedit PlainTextEncoding 4

but I need to relaunch TextEdit for the change to be registered and there's no way to make this change with Apple events to the app.

Is there any way of getting TextEdit to respect the changed prefs without relaunching?

JD
